UK Conservatives Hike Membership Fees by 56% as Donations Slump

  1. At £25 and around 170,000 members it would only cost £4.5m to take over the party, even at £39 it would only cost £6.5m.

    Seems cheap to completely destroy the tories by using the free market to buy the party.

  2. It seems like an invitation to leave after snubbing the members in the last leadership election. But then the absolute increase isn’t that much (£25 -> £39) so maybe not.

    It’s interesting to see the party’s bigger donors reducing their donations, I assume they now consider it a bad investment due to the impending next election loss.

  3. Hilarious, the Tories are so incapable of providing any value. They only know how to tax and launder.
